Chapter 39 - Brand New Day

I opened my eyes to see Gabrielle sitting at the foot of my bed.

"You're finally awake" She says.

"Have you just been watching me sleep?" I ask.

"No, I got here just ask you started to wake up. Upper management has been getting bored so they have greenlit a method for you to cash in on that new confidence I have in you." She says as she waves her hand and I feel a familiar burning in the nape of my neck.

A purple interface pops up in front of me as I sit up in bed. 

 *Confidence System* 

 *Tutorial*

 *Y/N?*

Gabrielle vanished as quickly as she arrived leaving me with more questions than answers. I guess I'll do the tutorial.

"Yes," I say, to no effect.

So I press "Y" on the interface. The interface shifts to a status screen.

* Status *

* Probability Lvl: 3 ^^ * * Lvl Up Available *

*Confidence Tokens: 27* *Shop*

There is an arrow pointing to the * Lvl Up Available * text, so I click it.

As I click the text I am transported to a familiar white void with Gabrielle standing within it.

"Why not just bring me right here?" I complain,

"More fun this way, Let me give you a quick run down." She says as she floats an enlarged version of the interface before me.

"As you level up your probability control you earn confidence tokens. Each level up from level 1 to level 5 gains you 10 tokens. Every 5 levels the token gain increases by 5. Before you ask the reason you have 27 tokens and not 30 at level 3 is because we used 3 tokens to give you this interface. Nothing in this life is free. You gain experience by using your power. Creative and new uses of your power gains you more experience. For example, when you gave yourself that wallet you would've gained 100 points with the interface, but every time you've given yourself cash since would've gained 10 points or so. As you level up you get more options and more freedom to use your power. You can use your tokens to upgrade your method of control. Currently you must write your probability statements down, but you can spend tokens to remove the date requirements to eventually just needing to think what you want the probabilities to be. You'll get the hang of it, you aren't stupid. Any questions?" She continues,

"Too many, but knowing you you wouldn't answer most of them. If my level gets high enough could I alter the interface with my power?" I ask,

"That's for me to know and for you to find out." She states as I arrive back in my bed.
